Portland, OR (PDX) and Seattle (SEA).[2]

Aeroméxico operated daily McDonnell Douglas DC-9-30 jet service from Guaymas nonstop to Tucson (TUS) for a number of years in the 1980s and 1990s.[3]

US Airways used to fly to Phoenix–Sky Harbor from Guaymas with Bombardier CRJ200 aircraft; the route was initially operated by Beechcraft 1900D and Bombardier Dash 8 aircraft. The service was discontinued in late 2012.[4]

gollark: I don't even know. Our current "AI" systems don't really seem like, well, anything comprehensible to humans?
gollark: But the monotone voices will make people not think too hard about AI rights.
